My group dined in on a busy Taco Tuesday (4 for $10, but you cannot mix and match) evening. The hostess at front warned us in... advance, but we ended up waiting 45 minutes for our food to be served. Our server was forgetful (one of my friends had specificrequests due to certain dietary restrictions), but he was nice and made up for it by giving us queso and salsa on the house.Which brings me to my next point, La Mesa has the BEST TORTILLA CHIPS I’ve ever had!!!! I’m literally craving them as I’mwriting this review. They’re thicker chips with amazing texture. The air pockets lend to an almost flaky tortilla chip, andthey are seasoned well. The salsa roja also had amazing flavor development, and the queso was equally delicious. I normallydon’t finish the chips at restaurants, but I devoured them at La Mesa and took the extra to-go. As for the tacos, I orderedthe seared tuna. The tuna was fresh and soft, the slaw and mango pico were incredibly flavorful, and the aioli added adelectable creaminess. However, I wish they had salsas on the side like most other Mexican restaurants do. My friend ordered aside of guacamole, which was more on the chunky side, and notably spicy with the Serrano peppers. I personally prefer a smoothguacamole, but I still liked it in the end. Overall, there is a reason why this place gets so busy. The food is delicious, butbe prepared to wait. Read more
The ambiance and decor was really nice as well as the outdoor seating area. The wait for our food was way too long. Everything... was a la carte so it became pretty pricey. The food was just okay for me. Read more
Great experience. Definitely call ahead if you can. We dinned outside by the fountain around 5:30 on Friday. We loved the Mesa... Guac it was a great twist on the food. Definitely recommend the appetizers. Read more
My wife and I went to La Mesa on 03/22. We have been to La Mesa before and have always enjoyed the food. I had the Clase Azul... Margarita and my wife had the Raspberry Smoke Margarita. The drinks were excellent. The menu on the website is a littleoutdated, so I don’t know which guacamole we had, but it had crab and capers. The flavors are something to be experience. Ilike that the chips are fresh and warm. For our main meal we each had the Birria tacos with the consommé. Let me say we werejust recently in Mexico City and had basically the same dish there. The Birria Tacos with the fried corn tortillas and consomméat La Mesa were far superior in flavor. My only recommendation, update the menu on the webpage. Read more

The food looked great and the staff was nice but everything I ate was just bland. I’d give them another try, however. Maybe... the flavor town guy/gal was out that night. PS. In reading other reviews (which I often do after posting mine to see if I wason point) I am editing this one. I see numerous responses from the restaurant being, “Did you ask for a manager?”, puttingthe impetus of customer service onto the customer. Bad form. On second thought, based on responses to other non-perfect reviewsalone - I won’t go back. Read more
